Today we began our collaboration with the Little Frogs! After playing in our room for a while, the Turtles gathered for a march up to the Little Frogs Room. We invited them to join us in our room for some Choice Time, and they gleefully accepted. We began with a short meeting, and each and every Turtle shared ideas about what the Little Frogs might want to do. It was so wonderful to listen as they described their favorite activities and centers, and to hear how excited they were for their friends to join them. And then the wild rumpus began!
We made dancing shadows,
experimented with the light projector,
painted and collaged name cards,
worked puzzles,
read books,
worked magnatiles
(which turned into ice cream cones),
and played in the sandbox.
We said good-bye to the Little Frogs, had Morning Meeting and snack, and then we headed outside! We were so glad to see the sunshine!
We played on the Lower Playground, becoming kings and queens of the castle.
Caimin found a slug and showed his teachers and his friends his discovery.
What a wonderful first week in the Turtle Room!
